Facts: Family: Salticidae Scientific name: Salticus scenicus Common name: Zebra spider or Zebra jumper The Zebra spider, Salticus scenicus, is a jumping spider and is one of my favourites. It has good vision and when you are close to it, it tracks your movements end keeps facing you. The Zebra spider doesn't make a net, it hunts/jumps on its prey.
